User can't update profile text in front end

User can't update profile text in front end was created by gamecat2300
Hello

I'm using joomla 1.5 and CB 1.2

I have 3 fields set up for a user using type "editorta".

When a user logs in they can upload images to their joomgallery.

Logged in via admin you can update user details. I'm assuming this is related to a front end setting?

However all tabs within the "edit your details" do not update the users profile. All field values are set to allow to the user to edit. But still no ability for them to change anything in their details".

In Firefox I do see an error "overlib_pagedefaults is not defined".

Is that the issue... related.. or not?

Thanks in advance!

Ah

I forgot to mention that I hacked the htaccess file for the "nice and short profile" url. Which works however it seems to interfere with the ability for users to update their own profile info:(

any ideas on how to fix this?

Here's the htaccess bit that's been added in:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?$ index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=userProfile&user='$1' [L]

Solved!

I updated the htaccess to;

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?$ /index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=userProfile&user='$1'&Itemid='$1' [L]
</IfModule>


adding in the Itemid seems to be the real fix here.
